John Cole was an orphan who lost his parents a year and a half ago. He was sent to the Manor. He was also Nicholas's first friend. Setting The setting mainly takes place at the Rothchild's property (the house and the land beyond it). It occurs a little while back when people drove Studebaker station wagons. Nicholas Benedict is going to be in his third orphanage, The Manor, and he is very excited. Nicholas hated the last one he was in. When he gets to the Manor, he finds out soon that the Manor is going to close because the people do not have enough money to keep the Manor running. One day, Nicholas reads the newspaper only to find out about the missing inheritance of Mrs. Rothchild. He works with Violet and John to see if he can solve this mystery. Nicholas knows he is in a race with Mr. Collum to see who can find the treasure first and save this orphanage. Bibliography Stewart, Trenton Lee. The Extraordinary Education of Nichols Benedict.
